Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- whether the proposed development would maximise the efficient use of urban land, in order to meet the Borough's identified housing need
- whether the proposed development satisfactorily avoids piecemeal development
- whether it is appropriate to develop the appeal site in isolation rather than as part of a comprehensive development
- whether the proposed development would make appropriate provision for affordable housing
What decided it
The proposed development would maximise the efficient use of land relative to its context whilst protecting the valued suburban character of the area, and would make appropriate provision for affordable housing through a justified financial contribution.
